Just.... No.

So it has been an entire month since I last got on here! I'm so sorry that I'm lame and not on top of things. I recently went to Lagoon with my best friend Zachary, my brother Yoshi, Yoshi's girlfriend Dani and my Mum. I had never gone before and it was pretty fun I must admit. The only bad parts were:
A. The prices were a little ridiculous.
B. Its a good four hour drive from where I live.
C. There was no fashion sense... at all.

If you have ever been to Disneyland, you will notice the abundance of little emo children running about. This can be said about Lagoon! Except when I say emo, I mean total 'whiskey tangos.' (Whiskey tango= a tad trashy.) Seriously, it sounds mean but I was a little scarred. I mean, there are children running around! I know its semi hot but please COVER UP. Its called being respectful.

Anyhow as I was trying to contain my horror, I thought to myself, "Gee Mika, don't be so rude. Maybe they just don't know how to dress for a public gathering." So I am giving them the benefit of the doubt that they were never taught what is appropriate. So this post is about dressing for theme park fun! I know that those of you who do actually read these probably don't dress whiskey tango, so focus more on inspiration for the next outfit. :)




Outfit choice 1: The Infamous Sundress.

Remember that post I did on sundresses? (No? Go back and check it. Its called Summer Staple.) Sundresses are fabulous! They are so comfy and look fabulous. Not to mention, it takes like five seconds tops to get into them. Sundresses are good if it is a water park/theme park combo. Make sure you wear your suit underneath your dress and voila! Done.









Outfit Idea 2: High waisted shorts and cute tank combo.

Check out the cute sailor inspired shorts on the left! I need a pair of these. Badly. So lightweight and so cute! Plus, they look like they have sweet pocket space. Pair these with a floral or striped tank. Or if you are feeling daring, wear a retro crop top!



Strappy gladiator sandals are key when you visit a theme park. If you wear flip flops, they could fly off your feet on some rides. And by could, I actually mean will. Keds and Converse also work fantastically if you need more padding/support when you walk. Oh! Also, make sure you have a water proof ziplock baggie for your phone and other items that must be protected! Tip: Pick a dress or a pair of shorts with good pockets. If all else fails, store in your bra/swim top. Pull your hair up so when it gets wet, it won't get too crazy. Also, don't wear loose accessories. They will fly off! That means no sunglasses as well. I mean, I suppose you could have those as long as someone held them for you off the ride or if they fit in your pocket.

Again I am so sorry for never posting. :( I will try to be more diligent! What do you wear to the amusement park? Comments and questions welcome! :)
